My Notchback had 145s in front and stock 165s in back, and a four-wheel alignment done at a street rod shop. It could dance like a ballerina. Hammer down in first and back off and it would throw the rear end another 1/8th turn.
Opposite was the 1957 Beetle with a 10" dune buggy wheel and F60-15s on the front. But I was working in construction back then.
